Low-Rank Representation (LRR) and Sparse Subspace Clustering (SSC) are considered as the hot topics of subspace clustering algorithms. SSC induces the sparsity through minimizing the l1-norm of the data matrix while LRR promotes a low-rank structure through minimizing the nuclear norm. In this paper, considering the problem of fitting a union of subspace to a collection of data points drawn from one more subspaces and corrupted by noise, we pose this problem as a non-convex optimization problem, where the goal is to decompose the corrupted data matrix as the sum of a clean and self-expressive dictionary plus a matrix of noise. We propose a new algorithm, named Low-Rank and Sparse Subspace Clustering with a Clean dictionary (LRS2C2), by combining SSC and LRR, as the representation is often both sparse and low-rank. The effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is demonstrated through experiments on motion segmentation and image clustering.
